Hey - if everything goes well this week we will be getting Alfonso in the water! It will be a cool day. This past week has been hard just finding people and teaching. A lot of our appointments fell through and people didn't want to hear us but its ok because I know I tried. This week WILL be better.
We met with Alfonso this past week and went over the questions with him and he was struggling with coffee and the commandment tithing. We taught him these things over again and he feels more comfortable. He has his interview tomorrow to see if he is prepared. I know he is prepared because he has a strong testimony of Joseph Smith and he believes the Book of Mormon is the word of God. Once you know these things it all falls into place and you realize how much sense this makes and there is no doubt that all of this is true.
So we were teaching this one dude named Miguel. He is friends with a member. We started talking about Prophets and then he starts going off about how Joseph Smith was a False Prophet and how Thomas S. Monson is a False Prophet also. He kept speaking like this and I got pretty disturbed so we "spit some fire" with real doctrine and just destroyed. He was dead quiet and then told us he needs to study more. Some people just only listen to what people say or what their pastor says and not do their own study to get their answer for themselves. I KNOW they are Prophets of God.
Wow - conference is coming up fast! It just felt like we just had the October General Conference. It will be cool to hear what they all have to say.
Love you all and miss you
